Texas Holdem’ was a game accessible only in Sin City Hotels or from video poker machines, but now it is more widespread than ever in Vegas thanks to the TV.

The popular Venetian Resort, is now gambling on the popularity with its new audience-participation show called “The Real Deal!” in its Venetian Showroom, starting in October.

The new game show will combine comedy and game show elements to entertain its live audience. The audience will also be able to take part in the famous Texas-Holdem’ alongside the best poker players in the world. The show has many prizes for the audience including a chance to win 1$ million.

In “The Real Deal!” the audience will play with players like Doyle Brunson, Phil Hellmuth and Daniel Negreanu. Around 10 of the World’s most famous poker players have already signed up for the poker game show. The audience will be able to play along with the 90 minute game thanks to handheld, wireless, touch screen devices located on each seat.

“People who come to Vegas want to play different types of poker games,” Negreanu says, “but obviously they can’t play in a top poker tournament with the likes of Doyle or Phil Hellmuth. But, in this show, they actually can.” When the show begins, six audience members will be chosen to sit at the poker table on stage with two pro poker players. Each audience member is then involved in the action by being dealt a unique poker hand on their devices. Everyone in the showroom is then involved in the action with big-screen monitors located on stage.

Creators of the show say that you don’t have to be a poker player to play in the poker tv show. There are other ways to raise your point total, that doesn’t involve playing poker necessarily. Betting on the suit of the next poker card or trying to guess which state a particular audience member is from, are just some of the ways to come out a champ in this game.

Creators of the show are also betting on the charisma of the pro poker stars to have great moments. Poker players like Scotty Nguyen, the flamboyant five-time winner of the World Series of Poker, definitely has an idea how to entertain the crowd and will provide some great entertainment in this upcoming show .
